Red Letter Media. I've grown bored of the content though but that's a me problem.
Majuular. He makes long form retrospectives of old games, his Ultima retros are amazing. Just keeps getting better and better.

Esoterica is really one of those channels that seems to gain in quality over the years. This summer's seminar on Merkabah literature was just bonkers ! If you like religious history the whole channel is a must watch.
This is a great channel!

I'll add some that haven't been mentioned.
Tech Ingredients - various experiments and builds. Everything on how to make rum to good novel speakers.
Erik Brandal - makes sound sculptures
/noclip - video game dev documentaries
This old Tony - Machining while being funny
Posy - Quirky beautiful retro HiFi/Tech
Edit: have to add Posy
Grimbeard, puts out well researched and highly entertaining game retrospectives.
BobbyFingers creates dioramas of famous events with insane tangents while documenting their creation. One video even has a choreographed song.
Lawerence systems covers a lot of self hosted tech with articulate and concise instructions. Really like his method of teaching.
GreenX has some amazing retrospective videos about games, they’re a bit newer of a channel. Every upload has been fantastic though. Insanely funny, highly recommend watching their STALKER video.
Facefullofeyes, same as above but has a very inconsistent upload schedule. Much less humor than greenx but very insightful analysis. Highly recommend the SWAT 4 video.
Ashens. Released a video the other day about microwavable burgers that I couldn't immediately tell whether it was brand new or 10 years old.

I bet this guy gets sponsorship offer after another and he refuses all of them. He has multiple videos in progress all the time. Some take years to finish. He might do a job and then at the end of the video he revisits the site half year later or for example waits for a rainy day to shoot video of how the new drainage ditch works. I challenge anyone to find a more authetic YouTuber.
Regular Car Reviews for sure
Granted it’s only 3 years old, there’s a channel called Little Chinese Everywhere. It’s a travel vlog of a Chinese woman and her German boyfriend. I like the channel for three reasons:
-
They are currently traveling the ancient silk road and retracing Marco Polo’s travels along Central Asia. The area is fascinating and they’re going to places I’ve never seen before or even thought about.
-
Their vlog format is great because they use forward-facing, POV style filming, and gorgeous drone shots. I hate videos that focus on travel and sights but 80% of the time the camera is on the vlogger’s face.
-
They actually research the history of the places they go to, and they’ve studied enough languages to be able to get by. So their videos are not the “out-of-place foreign person visits xx country” style.
Bernadette Banner does historical (largely Victorian) sewing techniques and patterns but sometimes branches out into health and beauty recipes as well.
Abby Cox does historical fashion on a broader scale and sometimes has content about other historical trends or myths that she encounters in her research.
